Gestalt Therapists in Indianapolis

“Are you ready to claim the life you imagine? Are you ready for a change but not sure how to get there?
Therapy serves different purposes for each of us. Some come for support, others want to let go of old thoughts, limiting beliefs or certain behaviors. Therapy is a safe place to explore your needs, feelings and potential in a safe and supportive environment.

“For many of us there may come a time when one recognizes a need to "talk with someone". As your pastoral counselor, I offer an empathetic presence and a listening ear to come alongside you as you sort through your feelings. Now is the time for you to stop being sucker punched by your unawareness regarding how your feelings, thoughts and behaviors impact your life. I work with individuals, couples, families and children assessing each unique need. I also offer a focus on Phase of Life Issues and Adjustment Problems resultng from major life changes.

“"Our life experiences will have resonances within our innermost being, .. so that we will again feel the rapture of being alive", - Joseph Campbell. After 33 years of practicing the art of psychotherapy I remain daily a student of how each of my clients give birth to new senses of self, new ways to embrace their life situation. I consider myself a "midwife" in this process, blessed to facilitate and bear witness to their own enfolding, tapping their own innate wisdom.

“I consult with individuals, couples and families. People seek me me out for help with depression, anxiety, loss of meaning, job stress, trauma-recovery and for personal and professional development. Most of the people who come to see me are experiencing difficulties in an important relationship. Many (but not all) of my clients are interested in integrating their spiritual resources with their therapy. My clients come from all walks of life. My goal is to create with you a space of confidentiality and safety in which healing and growth occur as your mindfulness increases. I look forward to meeting you.

“Crucible provides affordable biblical counseling services to individuals and families that are struggling with a variety of issues and wish to see God transform their lives while integrating faith into the healing process.

“The decision to begin counseling can be intimidating, exhilarating; and, ultimately, a life changer. Counseling at Sunstone Health & Wellness is done in a very relaxed, conversational way to make you feel as comfortable as possible. Most of the time, we know the solutions to our own problems. But there are those rare occasions when we all need a little extra support, education, and resources to help us continue on the path to living the best life possible. Counseling can be a powerful tool to create change and take action in the life you've always wanted to live.

“I provide individual, couple, family and group counseling. The focus of my practice is to help clients realize their goals for a satisfying and productive life, working collaboratively with them in the process. Ideally, clients who decide to work with me are motivated to seek change in their lives and are committed to the "process" of therapy. Therapy provides a mutual deepening of one's knowledge of Self and Other in the context of relationship. I strive to provide a safe, nurturing yet challenging space for clients to grow personally at the pace of their choosing.

“Are you feeling lost in uncertainty? Is anxiety or stress overwhelming you? I use a strength-based philosophy that focuses on psychological wellness rather than disease and illness. Using art materials alongside an art therapist, reflecting upon the creative process, and discussing a finished product, clients can increase self-awareness, cope with symptoms, and enjoy the delight of creation. My role as a witness, a guide, and an authentic presence is to accompany clients along their healing paths. I specialize in working with women and children who have suffered trauma and neurological/sensory disorders in children ages 2-18.

“My ideal client is struggling with dissatisfaction in their life. Whether depression, anxiety or relational issues, life is not turning out the way they want. I help my clients clarify who they are and what they are wanting in their lives. I am informed by psychodynamic and family of origin theory among many. I like to work with clients to discover the underlying reasons for their lack of satisfaction in life. I hope to encourage curiosity in my clients about how their think, feel, and interact in the world and what gets in the way of living life more fully.

“Difficulty managing your child's behaviors at home, school, or community? Is your child angry, irritable, or moody? Constant phone calls about their behavior? Don't know where to turn for help? If YES to any of these, I hope you will take a moment to consider working with me. The stress can leave you reeling and exhausted! Now, take a second to imagine being less worried and less stressed about your child...I would love to help make that vision a reality for you.

“With over Twenty-six years experience, I have had opportunity to witness and participate in the ever advancing understanding of the treatment of chemcial dependency. As we have expanded our knowledge of the disease concept of addiction, we have advanced our cognitive behavioral approach of care to include neurological/brain chemistry healing utilzing medication managment in conjnction with individual and group therapy. These advances are ever changing the success rates we are experinecing with transitioning individual affected by this disease from chronic/acute disease states to stabilized and/or remission status.

“Hello! I have enjoyed working as a licensed clinical social worker and licensed clinical addictions counselor for over 15 years. I have a wide range of skills, capable of working with a wide variety of issues, that include, but are not limited to improving coping skills, stress management, relationship enhancement and managing moods. In addition to these interests, my passion includes working with children, adolescents and their families. I use play and sand tray therapy to compliment the therapy process, allowing children to express themselves, while including the caregivers and siblings, to help the entire family reach their goals.

“Asking for help is an intensely personal decision. By reaching out to a therapist such as myself, you are beginning the process of restoration and the path toward a new way to experience life. I approach therapy with the understanding that each person is a unique individual and that the road to recovery evolves through a relational, yet confidential process.

“Whether you are seeking counseling for the first time, or contemplating to start again with a new therapist, you are taking an important step towards self-care and healing. I invite you to step into a safe environment where together we can give light not only to what hurts or is not working in your life, but also to your courage, resilience and intuition. Our therapeutic alliance will help you rediscover yourself, support your healing, and prepare for more personal growth and renewal.

“Innovative Interventions was started in 2006 to help individuals and families help themselves through home-based counseling. Our focus is on individualized, professional, compassionate care for your mental health and peace of mind.

“Wherever you may be in life, I will meet you where you are. My passion is working with individuals and couples though a faith based approach to gain a better understanding of themselves. I strive to help individuals, couples and families become the best they can be for themselves and others. You are capable to overcome depression, anxiety, identity issues, parenting issues, trauma and PTSD.

“Do you feel overwhelmed, stuck or not sure what to do next? Have you lost confidence in yourself? I specialize in empowering professional women in midlife who are recovering perfectionists, people pleasers and/or procrastinators to gain clarity in who they are, confidence in creating the next chapter of their life and the courage to make it happen in both their career and relationships. Do you wish you could just stand up for yourself? Do you worry that is you were fully yourself you would be disappointing others or not worthy of love? Your most powerful voice is your authentic voice.

“My role is to help you figure out what you want, what gets in the way, and how to get there. Lack of focus in life often is at the heart of peoples' problems. If you have concerns with depression, anxiety, fear, confusion, relationship, identity , spirituality, career options, personality, sadness, hopelessness, a sense of aimlessness, loss, even anger and irritability--all of these concerns can be helped by learning how to direct yourself.

“Although I have counseled across the board, my specialty lies in assisting clients that are suffering from depression and/or anxiety. I also have helped clients with chronic pain, personality/mood disorders as well as our military personnel that have been deployed. Although I have counseled children and teens, my expertise lies with adults and older adults.
